I suggest you need a middleware product such as ASP, Cold Fusion or PHP. These run on your server and can read / update DBs and build pages dynamically depending on the contents of the DB, the previous history of the session, etc.

Which product you choose depends on your environment and objectives. I suggest you search the web for articles comparing these products. [sig][/sig]

Read up on ASP's. I have been using ASP and ActiveX DLL's which work well...give it a try

Same here, I'm a heavy developer with ASP at my company, and we have many programs that uses MS Access on the serverside where the clients can change a couple fields, and it would affect what paragraphs say what, and what gif files are pointed to, when it goes to generate the page. I have also seen this same method done with PHP and MySQL at penny-arcade.com (they had a bug once, and you could see "Cant' Access MySQL" all over each important part of the site)

i've been using coldfusion and php, not asp - the one i prefer is php, as it's light and easy and powerful - but i don't know if it can query access dbase (coldfusion can !)
